The world murmurs and complains and resists every plan of Almighty YaHVeH; and yet, He proceeds in a timely fashion with all His works.

Almighty YaHVeH put it into the heart of President Trump to officially recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. It has always been the capital since King David conquered the Jebusites and made it the capital; however, it has not been recognized in modern times as Israel’s capital, because of the worlds stubborn resistance against it: enter President Donald Trump.

The Almighty always raises up men at just that perfect moment in time to accomplish all His heart’s desire, and there are not enough demons in hell to stop Him. Winston Churchill was raised up to rescue Britain in World War II. Almighty God raised up “Cyrus the Persian” to decree that the Temple in Jerusalem be rebuilt after the Babylonian Captivity. Abraham Lincoln was raised up to save the Union during the American Civil War and then died suddenly after his mission was accomplished. The British Empire was raised up in part to gain control of the area where Israel was a nation 1700 years past and then return the “Land of Israel” to the “People of Israel” after World War II.

Now Almighty God has apparently raised up President Trump, a strong man with much guts and fortitude and able to withstand the criticism of millions, to once again officially establish Jerusalem as Israel’s capital before the world.

Almighty YaHVeH may have more for President Trump to accomplish on behalf of Israel, but that remains to be seen. The Creator does not necessarily choose the person we would think to accomplish His purposes. You need not try and put YaHVeH in a box, for He will probably break all of your preconceived notions.

Know this: Just as Islam was not strong enough to prevent Israel from once again becoming a nation in 1948, neither was Islam strong enough to prevent the West Bank and Old Jerusalem from being restored to Israel, and neither was it strong enough to prevent the Almighty from restoring official recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. The Almighty works and who will prevent it?

Isaiah 43:11-13, “I, even I, am YHVH and beside Me there is no savior. I have declared and have saved and I have proclaimed, when there was no strange god among you; therefore, you are my witnesses says YHVH, that I am God. Yes, before the day was, I am He, and there is none that can deliver out of my hand. I will work and who will let it?”

The Muslim hornet’s nest at Al Aqsa swarms once again, stinging three Israeli officers and killing two of them near the Lion’s Gate. The Islamic terrorists fled to the Temple Mount area where they were gunned down and died. How long will Israel suffer the heathen infidel Islamists at the Temple mount? How long will it be, until the Almighty says enough? The so-called “status quo” at the Temple Mount is a temporary reality, that will one day come to a screeching halt.

Even though I am a Christian; I know that the Temple Mount does not belong to Christians, but to the sons of Jacob. Also, it is impossible that the Temple Mount belongs to Islam, because Islam did not even exist until the seventh century A.D. Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock are merely temporary desecrations.

First Chronicles 11:4-8 is the historical account about King David conquering the Jebusites at Jebus, also known as Jerusalem. After that, King David bought the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite for 600 shekels of gold and sacrificed unto YaHVeH there (First Chronicles 21:25-28). David’s son, King Solomon, built the first temple at that same location in Mount Moriah (Second Chronicles 3:1).

It is a known fact, that King David ruled Israel and Jerusalem approximately 1000 B.C. Let’s get real here people: the so-called Islamic claim to any part of Israel or Jerusalem rings completely hollow. They are merely squatters.

Because Israel sinned greatly before Almighty God, YaHVeH allowed the Romans to conquer them. Israel was dispersed among the nations for over 1800 years. Against all odds, YaHVeH returned the sons of Jacob to their land as He promised He would and they remain there to this day. The rest of Jerusalem was reconquered by Israel in 1967.

The “Times of the Gentiles” is not yet over (Luke 21:24). Israel itself mysteriously continues to allow the infidel Gentile Islamists to trample the Temple Mount and in Jerusalem. This must surely be at the hand of Almighty YaHVeH, but that time is coming to an end. When the time is ripe, the Third Temple will be built, the false-Messiah will sit in it proclaiming that he is God, and then the real Messiah will come and bring about the consummation as it is written in the scriptures.

Blind Israel will see the Messiah (Zechariah 12:10-14), embrace Him (Zechariah 13:6), and will suffer horrendous loss of life (Zechariah 3:8-9).

Trey Pearson has fallen prey to a promiscuous America, that now accepts perversion as normal. Apparently he believes, that King David of Israel and Jonathan the son of King Saul were romantically and sexually attracted to each other. Apparently he uses this thought to justify being homosexual.

Problem with this overreach is; neither King David nor Jonathan were homosexual and the Holy Bible in no way suggests that they were. The love that David and Jonathan had for each other was an unusually strong friendship, that could not be broken even under pressure from Jonathan’s dad King Saul. The book of Samuel in no way supports this unBiblical idea.

Satan is always present trying to pervert and twist the good things of Almighty God, and at those points in time, people must not entertain these ideas from the enemy of men’s souls.

The Holy Bible says in Ephesians 4:27, “Neither give place to the devil.”

One of the main ways, that perversion enters a person’s life is by, giving place to the devil. This word “place” in the text comes from a Greek word meaning “opportunity”. We are to never give Satan the opportunity to question the Word of God. Eve gave opportunity to the devil, by letting him rationalize with her, why eating the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was really okay, even though Almighty God had forbidden it.

King David gave opportunity to the devil by allowing himself to linger watching a naked Bathsheba bathe. As his sexual passions started to increase while he watched her; he should have turned away his gaze and even sent a messenger to warn her not to bathe in view of the palace. David was not born with adultery in his heart. Permitting his eyes to linger where they did not belong gave birth to lust and lust gave birth to adultery.

Cain gave place to the devil, by dwelling to long on his jealousy of his brother Abel. He continued to think about again and again and again until hatred filled his heart. After hatred entered his heart, he started entertaining thoughts of murder. Cain was not born with hatred in his heart. He should have resisted the thoughts of jealousy and anger, because these things give birth to hatred. Hatred so filled Cain’s heart, that it gave birth to thoughts of murder. Cain rose up and killed Abel.

Child molesters are not born that way. They entertain thoughts of taboo to the point, that it gives rise to unnatural lust, which in turn gives place to the act of molestation.

The same thing is true of incest, beastiality, homosexuality, lesbianism, transsexualism, and all forms of fornication.

The danger of pornography is, that it gives rise to lust. Illicit lust is merely a longing for what is forbidden. Anyone who views naked images of someone other than their spouse is opening themselves up to longing for what is forbidden. Passions rise up in the heart and the person begins to consider ways to satisfy the longing. This is not limited to sexual things.

James 1:14-15, “But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust and enticed. Then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin, and sin when it is finished brings forth death.”

The word “conceived” here means “captured or seized”. Once lust captures a person, then it gives birth to sin. If you allow your mind to dwell long enough where it does not belong, then you will find yourself longing for what is taboo, and at that point in time, your heart has been captured by lust. That is the very essence and nature of sin. You MUST never allow your mind to dwell on what the Almighty forbids. There are thousands of other things to think about and you are captain of your mind.

People are not born homosexual. If that were true, then Almighty God is not righteous, because He would be responsible for a person being homosexual and that absolutely is not the case. Almighty God is completely righteous, and we are obligated to remove our thoughts and our hearts from that which is evil. It is our duty.

Did you know, that Christ Himself was faced with these same temptations? The Holy Bible says that He was tempted in all ways like we are. Satan presented Christ with various thoughts to sin and this is known as temptation. Satan tempted Christ by suggesting an evil thought to Christ’s mind and this is how Satan approaches humans. Satan suggests evil thoughts to your mind. Many times it even seems like the temptation is a thought, that we originated. When a thought like that appears in your mind, then you should carefully weigh it against the Holy Bible. If you find it is from Satan, then you must resist it. You must resist it again and again and again if necessary.

James 4:7, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.”

First Corinthians 10:13, “There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man, but God is faithful, Who will not permit you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to endure it.”

Trey Pearson allowed his mind to dwell on his attraction to men. Satan tempted him again and again and again with the idea of physical intimacy with men. Trey Pearson failed to properly resist these perverse temptations. He resisted for a while, but allowed his mind to continue to think on taboo thoughts. The Almighty offered him an escape, but he preferred to continue to think on physical intimacy with other men. He thought this way long enough, that it gave birth to lust and longing for what the Almighty forbids. His lust and longing for that forbidden thing apparently gave birth to homosexual acts, because his interview suggests the same. Now Trey Pearson has become a trap and a liability for others struggling with these temptations, because he is giving advice to other Christians and the world in general about continuing to serve Christ, while practicing homosexuality (huh?) Trey calls this embrace of homosexality health and wholeness?

It is very sad what has happened to Trey. We all struggle with temptation to varying degrees, but to give in and to teach others to give in is abominable. My fellow Christians, Trey Pearson is deluded by Satan and is not to be listened to. He is perverting the Word of Almighty God and a danger to your spiritual well-being. Repentence to the Savior is his only hope and our only hope.

Proverbs 28:13, “He that covers his sins shall not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them shall have mercy.”

If Trey Pearson confesses and forsakes his sins, then he will have mercy. If he continues to justify and practice homosexuality, then he is in danger of eternal damnation. Every one of us needs to take heed to ourselves to continue to resist sin and fight the good fight of faith. We must not surrender to sin and then teach others why we can’t help ourselves and why others might as well surrender to sin as well. Satan loves for people to surrender to sin.

Christ loves homosexuals and died for all of us sinners, but Christ hates homosexuality and He never changes. We should continue to love Trey Pearson, but we must hate what he is doing and not succumb to his delusions.

President-elect Donald Trump has promised, that he will recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Trump is not a man who is afraid of breaking norms; in fact, he delights in going against the grain.

Trump blasted the Republican Establishment over and over again. He did not run a normal presidential campaign. He has made it a point to show that he is not politically correct. He has been attacked viciously, because he has the courage to say true things, that many want to pretend are not true. He has been willing to defend Christianity in an increasingly anti-Christian environment. He has been willing to openly slam the media. He has been man-enough to point out the simple truth, that Islam needs to be checked at the door and put on hold until we can figure out what is going on.

I am not a huge Trump fan, but I believe he is just man-enough to do what previous presidents have been afraid to do; and that is, recognize the obvious. Anybody with good sense should know, that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. Jerusalem has been Israel’s capital ever since King David made it the capital approximately 1000 years before Yahshua Jesus the Messiah was born.

Could it be, that YaHVeH has raised Donald Trump up for the purpose of focusing the world’s attention on YaHVeH’s holy city Jerusalem? Could it be, that Trump will play a pivotal role in pushing back against the Islamic juggernaut, that has harrassed Israel relentlessly? Could it be, that Trump will be loved by the Jews, in that same way as was Cyrus King of Persia?

It is an intriguing thought. Hopefully Trump is a man that works to perform his words, and not one who merely gives lipservice. May Almighty God bless and help the new President of the United States to rule in a way that is pleasing to Him, amen.

Search me, O God, and know my heart. Try me and know my thoughts and see if there be any wicked way in me and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalms 139:23

King David, a man after Almighty God’s own heart, wrote these words under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. They are words that you and I MUST take to heart. Notice, King David acknowledged his own need for introspection. Did you know, that the Almighty knows your heart better than you do? It does not matter how old we become, there needs to be an ongoing self-examination of our innermost thoughts. The Psalmist was acknowledging the possibility of some sort of evil existing in his heart and thoughts.

Do you realize, that you may have some sort of evil hidden in your heart and/or thoughts?

Very recently, the Almighty put His finger on something in my heart that was displeasing to Him. He patiently and firmly started that process some time ago and it took me quite a while to hear Him clearly. Almighty God has a way of getting through to us and it is our duty to listen and respond. I am just as human as the next person and my fallen nature is just as corrupt as yours is. When we realize that something sinful needs to be rooted out of our lives, we must not resist.

Notice, the Psalmist points out the need to be led in the way of eternal life. Surely you understand, that King David was already a Godly man. Even though he was a very Godly man, his heart was susceptible to sin the same as yours and mine. Don’t you think for one second, that all there is to being a Christian is saying the sinner’s prayer. Like King David, the Almighty may desire to root some sin out of your life. If you do not allow the Almighty to work on you in this fashion, then you will be placing your soul in grave danger. Resisting the Holy Spirit is foolish indeed.

Proverbs 28:13, “He that covers his sins shall not prosper, but whoso CONFESSES AND FORSAKES them shall have mercy.”

There are three very important factors for the Christian to live by and we must not disregard them. We are to do justly and love mercy and walk humbly with Almighty God. The Almighty’s justice is very sobering. He requires us to live this way. He is more than willing to extend us His mercy and my oh my how I need His mercy. We are to walk humbly before Him. We are not to be proud and arrogant, but always realizing we are nothing without Him.
